[Spaced Out! Update] - 463486

[Ipsquiggle]

Hey everyone, here's another patch for the Spaced Out! Testing Branch with some fixes, balance changes to plant mutations, and updated sounds effects!

Changes

• Farm Tiles and Hydroponic Tiles now allow corner access for delivery chores.
• Varied the maximum amount of radiation each plant species can handle
• Increased maximum seed mutation chance from 0.33 to 0.8. Seed mutation chance now scales up to each plant's maximum radiation level.
• "Unrefrigerated Food" notification now jumps to that food when clicked. (Only partially stale unrefrigerated food in storage will trigger the notification.)
• Added sounds for Radbolt traveling and explosion
• Added sounds for Duplicants reacting to radiation
• Radiation limits and seed descriptions more accurately describe when a plant will mutate and whether it will drop seeds.
• Reverted "Experimental: Allow temperature transfer of small ores less than 10 grams" as it was causing issues that need further investigation.

Fixes

• Radbolt Generator progress meter hookup. Restored Radbolt animation when more than 1/2 way to launch.
• Fixed a crash where rockets and pads weren't correctly aware of each other during launch. This won't happen any further, but existing saves may require rebuilding the launchpad under the rocket before the rocket can successfully take off.
• Fixed a scaling issue with the Arbor Tree where the art was blurry at certain stages of the grow cycle
• Fixed issue that caused Cluster Style selection screen background to sometimes misalign
• Fixed rockets disappearing when landing offscreen

"Farm Tiles and Hydroponic Tiles now allow corner access for delivery chores."

Some players would love to have arbor tree (seeds?) and pip`s in big Classic Terra DLC dear Klei

They are going pew pew!

hey everyone
producing heat to radbolt vs radbolt collisions could be interesting.maybe some interesting designs would come out

arent they on the neighboring radiation planet on big classic terra as well ...? you can wrangle them and then put them in the space ship and ship them back if they are... Its fair enough to want them on the initial starting asteroid though

nope, there is no such planet in a big terra start. This asteroid was removed to make terra bigger. 

it is 6 vs 7 asteroids but Klei forgot about pips and arbor trees to migrate to another place. Also Al volcano and ore are gone.

• Increased maximum seed mutation chance from 0.33 to 0.8. Seed mutation chance now scales up to each plant's maximum radiation level.

This sounds good. 80% chance at highest radiation level. Please clarify about "each plant's maximum radiation level"

is it counted when the seed is produced only while being harvested? So let's say the plant grows at zero radiation and when matured, it is bombarded with very high radiation, it will be withered but can still be harvested. A dup comes to harvest and it gets 80% chance to farm the mutated seed if a seed drops, correct?

if it is like that then "Varied the maximum amount of radiation each plant species can handle" does not make much difference. Players will try to bombard ready to be harvested plant with maximum amount of radiation which a dup (in the suit) can handle while harvesting the plant.

There's no aluminum volcano in base game

we are talking about Space out DLC here, particularly about the classic style=large Terra map.

you do not necessary need Al in the vanilla game as you get fullerene but do not make it.

yeah I was pointing out that since there's no aluminum volcano in base game there shouldn't be one on big terra start

some may want to have all resources including Al at the starting asteroid. Like you can get fullerene at the starting asteroid in the vanilla game. 

I am ok just to have it anywhere - on any asteroid but it should exist. Currently I extracted all graphite and realized that I cannot make fullerene and hence super coolant as there is no Al on my map (all asteroids). 

Also you can get unlimited Al ore from another planet in the vanilla map.

Aluminum and pips not being in big terra start is obviously just an early access shortcoming. I'm sure it'll get added eventually. I'm glad we have actual new content to play though, I'd much rather have new content than reiterations of old content.

i usually get aluminum volcano on classic terra, sometimes 2.  it seems classic terra has a thing for single volcanoes/geysers, can't have more than 1 of a random geyser so no multiple metal volcanoes of the same flavor on the same asteroid.  meaning at max, you can only get 2 of a certain metal volcano

my current play through on classic terra has 2 aluminum, 2 gold. and 2 cobalt.  one of each on the 2 asteroids. V-SNDST-C-346889564-0 is the seed.  sulfur geysers aren't guaranteed on the classic terra start either which i've had a game where i didn't get a sulfur geyser.  absolutely no leaky oil or large volcanoes though, kinda miss them and then not really lol

i do debug in a pip/arbor tree in classic terra though

I like the geyser/volcano set-up on classic Terra. It is a bit like the base-game where you had to adapt to what you have, but you almost always had something that made things ok. Now you get a limited preview in addition, via the space map.

Of course, this is "builder mode" where you do not have any harsh survival challenges, but that is a nice mode to have IMO. I do look forward to get an "classic Oasisse start" and variants of the others from the base game in the future, but I can wait for them, no rush.

I really like the spawn resource overview by selecting the asteroids in the space map

I hope you get this fixed at somepoint ^^ Would be great.

If I remember correctly, forest biome starts have a single hatch egg buried somewhere within.  It would be nice if sandstone biome starts got a similar treatment with a pip egg and an arbor tree seed.

Do they have Geiger counters embedded in them? How can they "feel" radiation? xD

"Today is a lovely day, but Ive got this funny taste in my mouth. Mhhhh, wait a second. Honey, Strawberry...Mhhh, nah. Does it taste a bit like Banana  Naaaaaaaa mhhh, ah...now I know - I think its a bit like Zirconium !"

Yummy Zirconium taste makes me think of the lovely ONi music ...
